It's was good. I was probably expecting a little more... I feel the portions are too small. We had the menu degustation for 2, & we left a little hungry. Service was low, but it's expected with a Caribbean vibe restaurant. I would def go back for drinks, though the cocktails were super good!!! My other friend had the poutine it was good the flavors were amazing, that was a good portion of poutine but it wasn't hot!!

Simon Olivier & son partner nous ont vraiment bien accueilli. Le choix de menu est vraiment attirant. J'ai choisi le menu dégustation deluxe.. THE BEST !!!!!!! Préparé avec soin & succulent! Abordable pour cette qualité culinaire. Les cocktails : WOW !!!! On a eu la chance d'être là durant la transition entre ancien & nouveau menu . On a eu le meilleur des 2. Vraiment heureux d'avoir découvert Kalista. On reviendra en plus grand nombre . One grate gem in petite patrie . Oh I forgot! The griot is out of this world yummy! Compliment guys. A refaire très bientôt. 👍👍👍👍

Les proprios Éloy & Styvie sont 2 vrais hôtes passionnés qui savent recevoir les convives. Pris en charge dès mon arrivée, ils ont su me guider dans leur monde qui, je dois l'avouer m'était inconnu jusqu'à cette merveilleuse découverte. La culture antillaise est une superbe cure de l'hiver montréalais qui nous presse le besoin de dépaysement pour se rappeler les soleil des îles ☀️ J'ai eu l'occasion d'expérimenter le menu dégustation, qui m'a permis de découvrir l'étendu de l'offre variée & savamment exécutée d'une cuisine à découvrir pour tous les palais, du néophyte curieux & ouvert(tel que je l'ai été pour cette première) à l'amateur aguerri qui saura se délecter du meilleur griot sur Montréal. Les Accras sont un pur délice, & je recommande fortement jerky de poulet. Encore une fois, merci à vous & votre passion flagrante ❤️

Excellent restaurant, proposition d'un menu de dégustation copieux & varié. Même mes enfants voulaient lui donner une bonne note. Délicieux cocktails pour compléter tout ça.
